| - Been here twice on two different occassions
First time, was with a friend. We tried the AYCE Crab Leg Dinner that includes warm bread, a cup of soup or salad, corn-on-the-cob, potatoes, signature dessert, and of course, the all-you-can-eat snow crab legs.
We haven't had any friends who tried this before so we didn't know how it was like. We each had ordered a New England Clam Chowder but were kind of hesitant to eat too much of it so we don't fill up and be full before the main attraction arrives.
The snow crab legs are served in clusters. More on the first order, less on the orders afterwards (for obvious reasons... XD). It's nice that they serve it this way so you'll haev a hot or at least fairly warm crab at the "end" instead of a bunch of cold crab from taking too long to eat it. The crab was nice and hot. Fresh too. Meat was fairly easy to retrieve and flaky.
My friend had given up after 2 orders, but i went for a 3rd. It was nice on the 2nd order, that the waiter brought it out near the end of our first. XD my friend was scared he was going to do that for the 3rd but luckily he asked.
Service was pretty good overall.

Second time was with a friend and her family, that came to visit from Hong Kong. The friend used to live in Vegas so knew some of these spots, as well as recommended by her sister (who still lives here).
She had two kids which they were going to share food with. She ordered a Fresh Oysters on the Half Shell appetizer to share (because she really loved fresh oysters, but her husband, and obviously kids dont like it). The oysters were really fresh. nice and sweet. clean as well (one of things that worry me when i eat fresh oysters). The cocktail sauce had a side of horseradish which gave it a nice (painful) kick xD
By recommendation, i had ordered the Bouillabaisse which consisted of shrimp, crab, mussels, clam, and fresh fish in a light tomato-saffron broth with leeks, fennel, and herbs. VERY fragrant broth from the saffron and herbs. The seafood was cooked nicely and not overcooked. Comes with a side of rice (which ended up going to the kids, because the son liked rice more than pasta). One downside to this experience, was the difficulty in finding out waiter to ask for more rice. Took quite a long time to find them, as well as bring it out.
Food was great. Service was lacking.
Overall, because of the food, good experience so far. Good place to try if you in this area.
